Where Do We Go from Here?

Reflections on WordPress and the Open Source Future

As we conclude Rome Core Days, this session invites everyone to explore unanswered questions from the event and consider WordPress’s journey ahead. Together, we’ll reflect on where WordPress is heading within the broader open-source landscape, discussing opportunities, potential challenges, and how the community can adapt, innovate, and strengthen. Join us for this forward-looking conversation on the future of open source and our place within it.

I am an experienced PHP web developer with a passion for WordPress and Open Source in general. I am a German native speaker and speak Italian fluently as I live in Italy. I am curious about new trends in computing and I like to spend a lot of my free time updating, maintaining and supporting my WordPress plugins. I am also an active member in the local community where I help as co-organizer of the WordPress meetup Milan.
